The world legendary Melbourne Cup was given birth following the pursuit from the Victorian Turf Club to put on a "good handicap" which might compete with its counterpart, the Victoria Jockey Club. Even though 1860s horse racing administrators were enthusiastic and visionary in many ways, not from their wildest hopes would they have figured that the Melbourne Cup might end up being what we know today - the most significant 3200 metre handicap horse racing event across the world. At the moment this occasion is as Australian as Wombats, Ayers Rock and Bells Beach and Melbourne Cup betting is known as a tradition in itself.
